Gregg County South Jail Release and Transfer Lookup
Inmates sentenced to state prison leave the South Jail for TDCJ intake, and their records move to the TDCJ offender lookup. People transferred to federal custody can be traced on BOP.gov. For anyone still in a county jail, a call to 866-268-8959 or a search on the IVSS-Counties site confirms the current status and lets you add a notification. Keep the SO number handy; it helps match the right record.
